Reblogging this for the weekday crowd. It’s vitally important and I don’t want us to lose sight of it among everything else going on right now.

An Indigenous scholar mentioned that she had a concept stolen from her a few years back. She then proceeded to say “they can have that concept bc I am abundant. When I theorize, I theorize in abundance. I am so much more than what is sometimes taken from me” 😮‍💨

I mean public theatre is great and all, but our delivery person just got an significant earful about disability, religion and masturbation through the buzzer and you only get that kind of experience at home.

I want to spend all day writing love songs in poems to all the kinds of disabled loves I know, but the world isn’t full of justice yet so I still have work to do.

On this International Day for Persons with Disability, I wish all disabled people a day of rest, and a break from being disabled for the non-disabled gaze.

As Twitter gets more unstable I’m starting to play with creating video content over on Instagram and TikTok. You can find me as @ shay.Erlich on both. tiktok.com/@shay.erlich/n…

A pet peeve to yell into the void about on a Monday afternoon: Skillful access coordination (the kind you use for festivals, conferences, cross-disability work) is not a $25/hr job. The kind of experience, education and skill it takes to pull that off is easily twice that hourly.

I am honestly aghast at the care @wheelimm is getting at @HRHospital tonight. Two security and a nurse screaming over a wheelchair user in 10/10 pain who fell out of their wheelchair from pain is absolutely appalling and unacceptable.

I do not base my opposition to MAiD as public policy on whether I would personally want/not want MAiD. I really find it shocking how few people grasp this or understand why the latter is irrelevant to the former.

Why does City of Toronto 🇨🇦 only build purpose-built accessible recreation in Scarborough? My west-end wheelchair using self wants places close to home to sport too. We can’t all sit in transit for an hour plus for recreation.
